Gurugram: The Rajkiya Kanya Mahavidyalaya students in Gurugram protested outside the college seeking cancellation of their second-semester examination.
According to the protesters, the college administration has sent a message to the students saying that they have been promoted to the third semester but later they were asked to sit for the second-semester examination.
“We protested to demand that exam of the second semester should be cancelled. We could not study as classes were suspended amid lockdown due to coronavirus pandemic. The college administration in a notice had said that we have been promoted. Three days ago, another notice came stating that our examination will be held and dates will be announced on January 20,” protesting student Anjali was quoted as saying by news agency ANI.
“Now, we have been told that there will be meeting on January 4 in the college. We will hold a big protest if exams will not be cancelled. If we can study for 10 days and clear all exams, then what’s the point of a three-year course. Make it for one month, take the examinations of all three semesters within 30 days and give us the degree,” Anjali added.
Another student Preeti also sought support from the college administration in these tough times. “We demand that college administration should support students and cancel the exams,” she said.
The traffic was disrupted due to the students’ protest on old railway road, Mahavir Chowk, Agrasen Chowk and Bus Stand Road.
